Overview

Tooltip Hider helps keep your screen clean by intelligently hiding unwanted tooltips while still letting you access important information instantly when you need it.

By default, Tooltip Hider hides non-essential tooltips during combat while allowing tooltips to behave normally outside of combat. Hold your configurable modifier key at any time to temporarily display hidden tooltips.

With v2.4, Tooltip Hider can also optionally control tooltip behavior outside of combat. Hide all tooltips, hide action bar tooltips, or select individual action buttons whose tooltips you want hidden.

Fully integrated with Blizzard’s Settings UI, Tooltip Hider is lightweight, performance-safe, and designed to feel like a native part of World of Warcraft.

Perfect for players who want fewer tooltip distractions without giving up quick access to the information they need.
